OET (OET-RV) I will bring those warriors who’re with me and we’ll approach the city, then when they come out to attack us like last time, we’ll run back away from them.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / go
נִקְרַ֖ב אֶל־הָעִ֑יר
approach to/towards the=city
Your language may say “go” rather than come in contexts such as this. Use whichever is more natural. Alternate translation: “we will go near to the city”
Note 2 topic: translate-ordinal
כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּרִֽאשֹׁנָ֔ה
just=as in/on/at/with,first
If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you could use an equivalent expression to express the meaning. Alternate translation: “just as they did before”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
בָּרִֽאשֹׁנָ֔ה
in/on/at/with,first
The author is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If your readers might misunderstand this, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: “at the first time” or “the first time”
8:1-13 The first attempt to conquer Ai had been done without consulting God; the second attempt would be made at God’s command and direction. Before the second attempt, God spoke to Joshua again and gave him a strategy. More importantly, in light of Israel’s recent disaster, God gave him encouragement and a promise.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
